Want to avoid explosive diarrhea? Pass it on

Has anyone ever watched a film in IMAX and non-IMAX and been wowed by the difference? Genuinely asking as I try to decide if The Odyssey is worth $19 on a Saturday afternoon vs $30 on a Tuesday night.

I started writing a joke about Eris, but only the fairest of you would understand it.

Three fun and quirky films and a surprisingly disappointing horror flick.

Here we go again 😭

Mulholland Drive

The best way I can describe how incredible B Noel Thomas was as Grizabella: my husband gave them a standing ovation after Memory. And he does not stand lightly.

The bathrooms are out of service at the Broadhurst so they're sending everyone to the Majestic. 🫠

Oh I thought this was just a photo of the wildfire smoke tinting the sky.

Gosh my sunglasses are giving everything a hazy tint — *Takes off sunglasses* Oh.

Where did this "preparing for my netflix documentary" video meme come from.

Anyone writing a Substack, IG post, or any such similar think piece about the closing of Jellicle Ball should hit delete, close their computer, and go outside for some fresh air.

Well my sister is a nurse and I faint when people *describe* medical procedures so

Bill Rausch should program The Jellicle Ball at the Perelman every June for Pride Month. Bring it back every season, like A Christmas Carol.

Okay Andrew, where is our JELLICLE BALL CAST ALBUM.

I really wish Letterbox had a "Spoilers Under The Cut" feature.

Not a great week to have the name Graham tbh.

This is your annual reminder that the Queen's Night Market is the single greatest culinary experience NYC has to offer and if you haven't been before, make this the summer you finally go!

Missed opportunity from The Devil Wears Prada marketing team to call the physical release format "Cerulean-Ray".

nice, france

The best edit I’ve seen in weeks, you absolutely have to turn the sound on for this one.

We have a new Diana The Musical and her name is Giulia. It's bonkers and messy and I loved it. Jennifer Nettles will not be winning any acting awards any time soon HOWEVER kudos to her for delivering a line like "Yes there are good men. They are none of my business" with complete conviction.

MAINE CHARACTER SYNDROME

AI fraud nearly derailed our next anthology. Today we’re talking about what went down, the things we missed, and publishing the report we wish we’d had when it happened. Read all about it on our new blog, and download the full report:

I've co-written a 12k word report about it. It contains a lot of information, thoughts and reflections. I HOPE it contains insights. In any event, I think it will be useful for editors, publishers and slush readers alike - so do share. And my DMs are very much open if people have thoughts.

The last few months have been some of the hardest in my professional life, as Bona Books has worked through an AI crisis . We ploughed our time, love and energy into creating paid, professional opportunities for genuine queer writers - and someone tried to steal them.

This is a really important read. Kudos to the @bonabooks.bsky.social team for the work being put in (though it's work no one should have to do!!!) because it really puts a spotlight on the additional labor and stress that independent artists are working under because of AI.

Lavish personal spending, 2/3 staff turnover and massive production cost overuns. My @notus.com debut is a 10-day investigation into why Hana Sharif resigned from Arena Stage. www.notus.org/metro/arena-...

Mega Man has defeated Footloose Man

This should be the blueprint for how to deal with random angry nerd men's online moaning.

X-Men 97 premiere / Confessions 2 handshake tweet

Neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night nor blazing heat will keep a gay from his diva's vinyl release.

If this had happened just a month earlier, imagine the "I am furious but I am sailing" pride merch we could have had.

Hmm it probably says something about my recent bouts of insomnia that the first night of good sleep I've had in awhile is the night I'm in the hospital.

You will curse the day you did not do all that the Phantom asked of you…!

this article sucks and if you agree with his take, unfollow me immediately and go fuck yourself.

witnessing the birth of a new all timer post is such a beautiful thing

Having a sister who is a nurse means I can get AI-free medical insights but then she'll name a thing and I have to Google it and sort through AI results to understand it. (Currently trying to figure out if this eye infection is one that "heals in 7-10 days" or "requires immediate hospitalization"🫠)

if you have your own physical media collection, you can do your own version of the Criterion Closet where you stand in your basement by yourself and saying "oh wow, In the Mood for Love, what a film" to absolutely no one

Scaling the Empire State Building? In THiS heat?

I know this is a serious graphic filled with important information, but that “heat stroke” graphic feels unnecessarily horny.

There will never again be appointment television quite like Marlena getting possessed on DAYS OF OUR LIVES.

I've had a terrible eye infection since Friday (which meant no Pride shenanigans 😤) but it's also throwing off my marathon training schedule which is driving me nuts.
